Description
Burch Farm is beautifully positioned within its own land of about 46.97 acres whilst enjoying delightful rural views along a charming rural valley.
Approached via a long sweeping drive flanked by woodland to the left and pasture land to the right, Burch Farm sits in a south facing, elevated spot with ample parking to the front. The main house totals over 4,637sq ft of wonderful accommodation full of period charm. The original thatched dwelling has been extended over time to create a versatile family home; notably the sociable kitchen/dining room with vaulted ceilings. There is plenty of space for a breakfast table and a seating area focused around the fireplace. This room has direct access to a south facing sun terrace whilst adjacent to the kitchen a useful playroom, pantry and cloakroom.
There are three formal reception rooms all enjoying their own identity and period features - the dining room, library and sitting room. Further accommodation on the ground floor includes a double aspect study with cracking views, useful utility and boot room, wine cellar and a further cloakroom.
A pretty staircase rises to the first floor where there is the principal bedroom with en suite bathroom, five further bedrooms and two further bathrooms. A second staircase provides access from the dining room up into the landing also.
Gardens and Grounds
Burch Farm comes into its own outside due to its most wonderful setting. To the front and south elevation is a sun terrace and formal gardens which are perfectly placed to catch the sunlight, alongside further gardens to the westerly aspect. Views from these areas are over its own grounds and woodland which extend to 46.97 acres. A noteworthy edition is the superb natural swimming lake and pontoon which was recently improved, again from here there are delightful views down through the valley.
There are plenty of outbuildings including a charming enclave of traditionally stone built stables and a detached barn with an a one bed cottage attached.
